I found a youtube vid on how to do this, but I can't find it now. In Crysis, you can't use the very high settings on dx9, regardless of how good your PC is. HOWEVER. There is a very quick and simple way to beat the system. Simply navigate to your crysis folder, usually C:\Program Files\Electronic Arts\Crytek\Crysis\ or something like that, then go to /game/Config/CVargroups. There should be a bunch of .cfg files there that can be opened with notepad. BACK THESE UP. all of them. Srsly. Once you have backed them up, open one up. In them there should be something that looks like this:

Repeat with all of the .cfg files and viola. You've just tricked Crysis into thinking high is very high.

Note: this does not unlock very high in the graphics settings menu. All it does is make high use Very high settings. You'll see this in the shafts of light coming through trees, the dynamically rendered ocean surface, and a bunch of other stuff. Good luck!

Thats a good tut,well writen but the results arent DirectX 10 like.I've followed this tut a couple of times and its giving quite an graphics improvements but slows the game down a bit from the High option with 1-2 FPS on my system.Anyway 4.9/5

Oddly enough, I got a bit of a performance hike. I went up a few fps. Somewhere in there are two text docs that list most major graphics cards with the same 1-4 based on how well they handle the game. Mine's a 3.

I use since Ages these Mod from Crymod and it looks very well Also i tryed out a Natural Mod but didnt liked it that much.

@ Tsurugi:You have the same GFX then me so you could use the Extreme Mod.If you test it, tell me which one looks better.So i can switch to another Cfg.

@ G-Man:Do you ever used a Quality Patch for Warhead?Im not sure about installing one because Warhead runs and looks very well at my Comp in Enthusiast Settings.So i thought theres no need to install a Mod.

Most Quality CFG`s want a GF 8800 better GF8800GTS.Whats your Framerate when using this Mod?
